	Well sweet here it is the close of another day. And 
it finds me about as usual. It also brings to me the song
of Oh those lonely nights. Your nice long V mail of 
the 22nd came to-day. Was sure glad to hear, and sorry
that Mary isn't doing so well. Maby tho by now she is 
about to get straightened out. Yes Honey I expect you
will have lots of fun on that three way move you 
say Bamby & the rest of them are making. I know
that Bamby will be glad to be back home. But I don't 
see what she wants with a house. She might just
as well of stayed where she was. I am glad you got
your bed spread. I was beginning to wonder about it.
Capt Kelleys wife hasent recieved her pkg he sent her the 
same time I sent yours. Honey I am like you I don't believe 
[Modene] & [Alton] can get along together very long. The 
kids will cause to much trouble I am afraid. Do you ever
see Vince & the girl. Nobody has mentioned her in 
their letters recently. Well sweet looks like I will have 
to get another page, as I have a little more to say
I love you
